Retro City Rampage to be updated with “DX” content on WiiWare next week
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii Shop Channel | 0 comments
The WiiWare version of Retro City Rampage will soon be updated with “DX” content. All missions have been tweaked, which extends to vehicles, weapons, challenges, visual effects, visual enhancements, checkpoints, difficulty, and challenges. Enhancements have been made to the core gameplay as well as smaller elements such as parking garages and waypoints.
Once the “DX” content is released, Retro City Rampage on WiiWare will be in line with the other versions of the game – mostly anyway. Only HD video filters and zoom modes will be missing. The Wii Remote, Classic Controller and GameCube Controller will all be supported, and there’s an optional “shake” gesture exclusive to the Wii Remote.
Retro City Rampage has also been rated in Australia in New Zealand, so the game should be out in these territories soon. Meanwhile, look forward to the “DX” update in other regions on November 13.

Here’s an interesting piece of news coming out of Japan. Since October 30, Capcom has been running a location test for Luigi’s Mansion Arcade. As far as we can tell, it’s an arcade version of Luigi’s Mansion 2.
It’s strange that nothing has been said about Luigi’s Mansion Arcade previously, but it apparently does exist! The final location ran on November 3.

[Weekly Screenshot] Paper Monsters Recut #5 – Freeze-Easy Sneak Peeks
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Screenshots, Weekly Screenshot, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Our small residency with Mobot Studios has now come to an end as they show off the final weekly screenshot from the now-released Paper Monsters Recut on Wii U eShop. You can get the game for a handful of dollars if it looks like your kind of thing; it’s probably worth noting that all of the reviews have been very positive so far.
Anyway, the last screenshot shows us a bit of winter-time ambiance from the new night-time levels in the game. For those of us in the northern United States this can serve as a blistering reminder of just how cold it’s getting outside. For you lucky people that aren’t dealing with freezing temperatures: Enjoy this bit of game-made snow-laden fun.
Our final Paper Monsters Recut screenshot shows off a new nighttime level in a wintery world called Yibiki Peaks. In these snow levels you’ll encounter all sorts of “cool“ characters and power ups from Yetis, to sleds, and even submarines. We hope you’ve enjoyed the screenshots. Stay tuned for the European release of Paper Monsters Recut very soon, follow us on Twitter @MobotStudios for more news, and a big thank you to Nintendo Everything for putting together this feature!
